1 t vanilla extract

1/3 cup (75 g) salted butter, softened or melted

Vejledning

Place pie crust into a 9'' pie plate. Refrigerate pie crust while you prepare the pecan pie filling.

In a large bowl, mix together sugar, brown sugar, salt, corn syrup, and melted butter. Mix in the eggs and vanilla. Do not overmix.

Stir ¾ cup chocolate chips into the batter. Pour batter into cold, unbaked pie shell. (Reserve remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips for topping on the pie right when it comes out of the oven).

Bake at 425°F for 10 minutes, then lower the oven temp to 350°F and continue baking for about 45-50 minutes. Check the pie halfway through cooking and carefully tent a large piece of aluminum foil over the top. You will know your pecan pie is done when you can move it and it is not overly jiggly. If it jiggles a lot, continue cooking until the center is more set, 5-10 more minutes.

Sprinkle remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips over hot cooked pie. Allow pie to cool completely at room temperature and then refrigerate for a few hours before cutting and serving.
